If a vehicle is being driven in such a manner that it is causing a danger or nuisance to other road users then the Police have the power to stop the vehicle and penalise the driver by way of a fine and / or points endorsed on the driver's license. The courts have the power to revoke the license, impose bigger fines, require a retest and even imprison the driver (highly unlikely). A driver proceeding so slow as to be a liability could be stopped and presecuted.

To prevent this a minimum 40mph speed limit was introduced but only on affected roads for a short period and it was the Public Order Act and not the Road Traffic Act that was invoked.
